Current
Commentary is currently edited by Norman Podhoretz's son John. The elder Podhoretz, who served as editor-in-chief until 1995, is currently the magazine's editor-at-large. Neal Kozodoy was editor between 1995 and January 2009.
The magazine is no longer affiliated with the American Jewish Committee. In 2007, Commentary, Inc., an independent 501(c)(3) non-profit enterprise, became the magazine's publisher.
In January 2007 Commentary launched a new blog, contentions.
In 2011 it announced plans to give its archives from 1945 to 1995 to the Harry Ransom Center at the University of Texas at Austin.

Famous quotes containing the word current:
“Beneath the azure current floweth;
Above, the golden sunlight glows.
Rebellious, the storm it wooeth,
As if the storms could give repose.”
—Mikhail Lermontov (1814–1841)
“I have come to believe ... that the stage may do more than teach, that much of our current moral instruction will not endure the test of being cast into a lifelike mold, and when presented in dramatic form will reveal itself as platitudinous and effete. That which may have sounded like righteous teaching when it was remote and wordy will be challenged afresh when it is obliged to simulate life itself.”
—Jane Addams (1860–1935)
“The English language may hold a more disagreeable combination of words than “The doctor will see you now.” I am willing to concede something to the phrase “Have you anything to say before the current is turned on?””
—Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
